Upon arrival

First thing our technician will do once he reaches your vehicle is to assess your car so as to verify if indeed it is the problem of incorrect fuel, and if they find out that it is not, he will just ask you for an updated amount of the quoted price.

Our technician will be carrying the necessary equipment and fresh fuel with him so if he discovers that it is really the problem of wrong fuel, he will fix it on the spot. He will empty out the mixed fuel, flush the fuel system, and refill the tank with fresh fuel priced just the same as that charged in the gasoline station. We are aware that you might not be having enough money with you, but you don’t have to worry because we accept any common credit or debit card thus you can use them to pay.

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

You should know that wrong fuel is not the only problem which can make your engine run abnormally. The presence of water in fuel is another problem which can make your car produce lots of smoke, run irregularly, stop or show signs of no power. But water can do a lot of damage which is irreparable, like damaging the fuel filter which doesn't necessarily happen in case of wrong fuel.

Another thing which can cause similar signs is putting AdBlue directly into the fuel tank. AdBlue contamination can also occur if it is used by somebody who has no know-how on how or where it should be added. For correct operation of it, AdBlue should be added through its own separate tank and dosing system rather than added to the fuel tank.

Whether it's the issue of fuel contaminated by water or with AdBlue, we can handle it using similar procedure of draining, flushing, and refilling of the fuel system, which we generally use to solve the issue of incorrect fuel in a car. It doesn't matter what the cause is, we can get you back on your way. We can also replace those fuel filters damaged by water.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
• Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.

We had a call from a young man who put the wrong fuel in his Whatsole Street. He had conked out on the street. "I was pleased at how speedy you guys were in having a technician out to help me after I erroneously petrol in my diesel. Thank you ever so much". Of course we got there rapidly and purged the engine after flushing all of the wrong fuel from the diesel tank. When he arrived our engineer said the motorist was fuming, but was grinning his face off when we finished.
